This service interuption has happened before and probabbly will continue for some time to come. If for any reason, the login server that the users account information is stored on is unavailable (and those servers do not appear to be replicated) then you can't login.
I do have hotmail.com, yahoo.com and netscape.com throwaway accounts and can get to HotMail today.
The architecture behind Passport is not yet robust. Maybe never will be since it relies upon NT.
Passport is part of Bill's attempt to gain enough market share to allow him to charge either a PI fee for the service or more likely become the credit card transaction processor.
